ABORTED Posts Two New Tracks Online; Prepares For North American Tour
Mankind’s sense for creativity probably manifests best in the sheer
unlimited ways of torturing, mutilating, and killing each other.
Successfully applying this atrocious inventiveness to their perversely
precise sonic executions, European death metal butchers, ABORTED, with
members hailing from Belgium, France and the UK have refined and
re-defined the tools of their trade on their sixth full-length,
Strychnine.213, to murder the listener with unimaginably gruesome,
shockingly diverse brutality. The album’s much anticipated North
American release is set for June 24th, just as the band embarks on this
year’s Summer Slaughter tour. Be sure to check out
www.myspace.com/summerslaughtertour for their complete itinerary.
Besides the macabre cover artwork by Colin Marks, ABORTED now present
you two new songs from their stunning follow-up to 2007’s much-lauded
Century Media offering, Slaughter & Apparatus: A Methodical Overture, at
their revamped MySpace site. “I35” demonstrates how ABORTED have
successfully increased the modern, darker and surprisingly dynamic and
melodic elements of their sound, whereas “Pestiferous Subterfuge” is
another brutal groove laden assault. Listen to them now at

Combining the band’s undeniable live energy with a powerhouse production
from Eric Rachel (The Red Chord, The Black Dahlia Murder, God Forbid)
and a much needed diversified approach to the overly edited, sterile
sounding death metal records of today, ABORTED succeed in retaining
their vicious roots while evolving in terms of melody, musical
virtuosity and vigor.
Strychnine.213 reinforces the notion that ABORTED have doubtlessly
developed into extreme metal’s most promising new breed.
